KARIANNE LISONBEE
State Representative, House Majority Whip
"Representative Candice Pierucci is a respected, effective, and conscientious legislator who works continuously to keep government responsible, transparent and accountable, and to protect Utah residents, our universities and land from the influence of the Chinese communist party, reinforce parental rights, defend 2nd Amendment rights, and safeguard taxpayer's wallets. As the sponsor of Utah's pro-life legislation, I appreciate Candice's unequivocal defense of the unborn. Please vote to re-elect Representative Pierucci!"
TRENT STAGGS
Mayor of Riverton
“As someone who has grown up or lived in Herriman and Riverton almost her entire life, Candice Pierucci understands the issues most important to those who live in House District 49. Candice is committed to working closely with our communities to find solutions to address the challenges we've faced with rapid growth. I have worked hard to lead out on this issue and know I have an ally and advocate with Candice representing this area in the Utah State Legislature. I have been impressed with her communication, work ethic, experience, commitment to local governance, innovative solutions and transportation improvements that we so desperately need. I am pleased to support her in this race and encourage everyone to do the same.”
KERA BIRKELAND
State Representative
“Rep. Candice Pierucci is an asset to the state of Utah. As a legislator, Candice is knowledgeable, approachable, intelligent, and conservative. She isn't afraid to tackle tough issues. I have witnessed her willingness to be flexible when and where she can, yet unwavering in her core principles. One thing I respect most about Candice is her honest desire to do good. She's at the Capitol to make Utah better. Under her leadership, people can count on her to help them obtain more freedom, fewer taxes, and greater local control."
STEVEN SHIELDS
Herriman City Councilman
“Candice took over mid-term for a well-respected and experienced legislator in early 2019. From the moment she was elected, she hit the ground running, proactively reaching out to members of city councils and local cities. She took time to meet one on one with these people and hear their concerns and needs. Then she went to work. If you are asking me why I am endorsing Candice Pierucci for State Representative, is that she went to work. In her first term she was able to make progress on key initiatives in Herriman City that had been stuck for many years. She worked to limit the exceptions that Salt Lake County has to override local communities in approving developments. Candice is simply the best example of a true "representative." Her energy, insights, and work ethic are second to none. I am proud to call Candice friend, and pleased to fully endorse her for State Representative for District 49!”
DAWN RAMSEY

She is a product of this district and will be a strong conservative voice for South Jordan, Riverton and Herriman.”
TEDDY HODGES
Herriman City Councilman
"Candice has worked hard to represent her constituents and meet the needs of our community. She goes out of her way to be accessible and engage in civil dialogue to discuss important issues. Candice is a compassionate conservative and a strong voice for Herriman. She has my full support.
SHERRIE OHRN
Herriman City Councilwoman
"Candice has been an inspiring leader since she was appointed. I had the opportunity to meet with her and share some of our needs and concerns in our city and watched her address those concerns through the legislative session. She not only listens to her constituents but acts. I fully support her!"
